"The Disappearing of Gensokyo" is a remarkable fan-made ARPG bullet hell game based on the popular Touhou Project series. Developed by MyACG Studio, a Chinese doujin game fan circle, this game reimagines the world of Gensokyo as an action-packed ARPG with elements of the iconic danmaku (bullet hell) gameplay. While the game's story might be confusing for newcomers to the franchise, it more than makes up for it with its challenging gameplay and fantastic soundtrack.

One of the standout features of the game is its outstanding soundtrack. The music sets the perfect atmosphere for the intense battles and is so good that players might find themselves humming the tunes even outside the game. The ability to access the soundtrack from the main menu is a welcome addition, allowing players to enjoy the game's exceptional music at their leisure.

The diverse cast of playable characters is another highlight of "The Disappearing of Gensokyo." Each character comes with unique abilities, primary and secondary attacks, and powerful bombs. This variety adds depth to the gameplay, encouraging players to experiment with different characters and strategies. Moreover, the controls are well-designed, making both keyboard and mouse play viable options, though some players might still prefer using a controller.

The game's graphics are solid, with detailed 2D character designs and modest but appealing animations. While the 3D character models sometimes lack facial variety, the distinct clothing and weapons of each character compensate for it. The level design, while simplistic, offers enough variation, taking players through different locations in Gensokyo, from serene forests to eerie mansions and even the moon.

On the downside, the game's story feels linear and predictable, with the focus primarily placed on the gameplay. Players looking for an intricate narrative might be slightly disappointed, as the main attraction lies in the thrilling battles against Touhou characters and other enemies. Speaking of battles, the boss fights are particularly well-crafted, offering a mix of exhilarating challenge and strategic depth. However, the difficulty curve can be uneven, with some bosses being relatively easy and others extremely tough.

One glaring issue is the placement of checkpoints. They are too sparse, especially towards the later levels, causing frustration when players have to repeat long sections after each boss defeat. This can make the game feel unnecessarily punishing and could be improved with more frequent checkpoints, especially for the final level.

Overall, "The Disappearing of Gensokyo" is a delightful and challenging experience for Touhou fans and ARPG enthusiasts alike. It excels in its gameplay mechanics, offering a blend of bullet hell intensity and action-packed combat. While the story and translations may not be the game's strongest points, the enjoyment comes from mastering the characters, learning boss patterns, and overcoming the intense battles. With a variety of difficulty settings and multiple playable characters to unlock, the game provides excellent replay value for those seeking a true test of their skills. If you're up for a thrilling and challenging adventure in the world of Touhou Project, "The Disappearing of Gensokyo" is well worth your time.

Gaokao.Love.100Days - A Touching Tale of Youth, Love, and Dreams

The third year of high school is a pivotal moment for many, carrying with it both the brilliance of youth and the uncertainty of the future. In "100 Days of Love in College Entrance Examination," players are taken on an emotional journey through the ordinary lives of two high school students preparing for the Gaokao (National College Entrance Exam). The game stands apart from typical galgames, offering a refreshing and authentic experience that resonates with players on a deeper level.

The game's plot starts unexpectedly, as the protagonist successfully confesses his love to Mu Xin right from the beginning. What might seem like an overly fast-paced romance soon transforms into a tale of ordinary high school students navigating the complexities of love and life. The protagonists are relatable, lacking the flashy personalities often found in similar games. Their conversations are filled with sincere and heartfelt emotions, reflecting the true essence of youth.

"100 Days of Love in College Entrance Examination" takes a unique approach to gameplay. Instead of the typical branching options leading to different endings, the game focuses on developing the protagonist's values, abilities, and ideals. The player's decisions influence the character's Gaokao score and determine whether the protagonist ends up with a romantic partner. Balancing academics and romance becomes a central theme, emphasizing the struggle many students face during this critical time.

The game presents various events that can affect the protagonist's values, making each playthrough different and engaging. The incorporation of random events and unexpected encounters adds depth to the characters and keeps players invested in the story. However, some players may find the 100-day setting a bit lengthy, as the repetitive nature of later random events can slightly disrupt the overall experience.

The characters in "100 Days of Love in College Entrance Examination" are beautifully portrayed, each with their unique personality traits and struggles. Mu Xin, the female lead, appears cheerful and carefree on the surface but hides a fragile heart and feelings of loneliness. Luo Xiaohan, with her excellent grades and caring nature, exudes the aura of a nurturing older sister. The male lead's buddy, Wei Tong, provides moments of levity with his silly antics.

The game's strengths lie in its attention to detail, with high-quality dubbing creating a comforting sense of immersion. The developers have meticulously captured the essence of college entrance examination life, allowing players to vividly relive the memories of their own senior year in high school. With over 58 endings (61 with DLC), the game boasts extensive replayability, encouraging players to explore multiple paths and outcomes.

While "100 Days of Love in College Entrance Examination" offers a heartwarming experience, there are some aspects that could be improved. The numerical system design for balancing academics and romance could be more refined to create a smoother gameplay experience. Additionally, addressing repetitive random events in the later stages could enhance the overall flow of the game.

In conclusion, "100 Days of Love in College Entrance Examination" is a captivating and emotional journey that captures the essence of youth, love, and dreams. By embracing the ordinary and eschewing melodramatics, the game delivers a touching narrative that resonates with players on a personal level. The balance between academics and romance serves as a reflection of the choices and sacrifices made during the crucial period of preparing for the Gaokao. With its compelling characters, detailed portrayal of high school life, and numerous endings, the game offers an unforgettable experience for players seeking a genuine and heartwarming journey. Whether you are reminiscing about your own high school days or longing for a taste of authentic youth, "100 Days of Love in College Entrance Examination" is a galgame that will leave a lasting impression on your heart.

"Assault Spy is a stylish, fast paced, pure-action game with a dash of comedy."

Assault Spy is an action game developed by Wazen and published by NIS America. This game has received much attention since its Early Access. In particular, Assault Spy's developer Wazen has been constantly releasing news of updates. As a result, their efforts have received positive feedback from users. You can check their update news at the following link: https://steamproxy.net/app/767930/allnews/

If you are interested in Assault Spy, you may wonder how this game has improved and evolved since Early Access. Assault Spy was officially announced at NIS America's press event in February. At the time, the announcement that this talented indie developer Wazen was developing this game was enough to get a lot of attention. Three months later, Early Access began in May. And finally in October, Assault Spy was officially released.

Its gameplay is similar to classic games you may have enjoyed. It may remind you of the Devil May Cry Series or Senran Kagura Series. This game is also very dynamic so players will not get bored. However, Assault Spy has been upgraded with distinctive art style and funny humor. Of course it is not perfect. It has been mentioned that this game is inconvenient to control with keyboard / mouse. Be sure to use a game controller to enjoy this game more. This developer has solved some issues after receiving feedback from users.

In general, Japanese art-style games tend to concentrate a lot on the game characters. For this reason, users are likely to express concerns about the completeness of the game itself. However, Assault Spy seems to be well balanced. The characters in this game are attractive while the action is fast and easy to understand. Furthermore, the frantic story of Assault Spy makes this game more interesting. I am confident that the different aspects of characters and how they are entangled within the story would be one of the main features in Assault Spy.

To summarize, Assault Spy is not perfect but has enough potential. The overall concept is great. Gameplay is full of fast paced action with great comedy. And the game illustration and voice acting are very impressive. Of course, some control issues and level design seem to need improvement. But given the developer's dedication to this game, Assault Spy will surely get better. So don't worry, dive in!

Evenicle. This game is made by Alicesoft and published by MangaGamer. First of all, I would like to start this review with the greeting that this game finally came to the Steam platform! Oh, I have something to mention. If you can not find this game on Steam, open up a new world in your settings. Then you will be able to find it. In fact, Evenicle has originally been released in 2015, and it received a lot of good praise. Therefore, Evenicle is a proven game that you should not have to worry about. So what is this game? Is it really worth playing? Let's find out.

Evenicle is a JRPG style game with Visual Novel mechanics. At first glance, this game may seem somewhat lacking for the RPG itself. But the real joy of this game is the story and the beautiful illustrations. The RPG elements of this game have been added on to make the game stand out. The story plot is simple but interesting. The source of the story may be similar to the story of King Arthur but with a twist and reinterpretation. Furthermore, when playing these kinds of games complicated plots are not really practical. This game aims to fulfill your wishes faithfully.

The synopsis that begins the story is as follows. The creator of the world, the Holy Mother Eve, gave two commandments: one must not kill another human, and one must only have one partner for life. However, knights are exempted from the latter divine rule, so that they can produce powerful offspring to fight against monsters. Somewhere in the land, there was a young man Asterisk who wished to marry the beautiful twin sisters who raised him. He decided that he will become a knight and get lots of wives! Thus, he set out on his journey with great enthusiasm and ambition. (https://vndb.org/v16640)

The beginning of this journey was to marry the beautiful sisters (Kyou and Kinou) who took care of Asterisk (Aster for short), but as the story progresses, Aster meets other female heroines. There are four main girl characters (Riche/Ramius/Gurigura/Kathryn) and sub-heroines (Towa/Tio/Erimo/Kuroa) that will fill your fantasy journey. In addition, 10 beautiful and unique marriage partners are waiting for you! Almost all the characters in the game have full voice overs. But this sweet romance is not everything in this game. Evenicle is the story of heroes who come together to understand each other's problems and achieve their goals. Sometimes there will be trials, but the story as a whole makes players feel warm.

How about Evenicle's GamePlay? It is simple and nothing innovative. But I must emphasize that the RPG mechanism in this game is not the main attraction. However, the gameplay style, including the game's RPG elements, makes Evenicle even more valuable as the seasoning in the food which enhances the flavor. Evenicle is a world exploration TRPG with Japanese anime style segments. As you explore the world with heroines, you encounter enemies and raise your level. There are many towns to visit and they have basic RPG features such as earning gold, buying equipment, and customizing abilities. Fortunately, RPG grinding is not difficult in this game. The characters will naturally grow stronger along with the flow of the story. And you can raise your character's level by experiencing love events. If you defeat monsters with your wives and fill up your love gauges with them, new skills will also gradually open up. In addition, the game has a variety of optional activities. Powerful Mega-monsters to to give you a challenge, Gal Monsters to catch through combat, and various service scenes to fulfill your wishes.

Evenicle is comfortable to be played in a fairly pleasant and light atmosphere. Evenicle is a game that guarantees unique fun while properly providing JRPG elements that will inspire you in the games of this genre. So even if you are a beginner, you will be able to easily adapt to the game and have fun. Of course, it can not be denied that there are uncomfortable factors in some cases. But compared to similar genres, I think this game will be easier to reach for more users. Besides if you're a fan of the Senran Kagura Series, popularly known in many ways, you will love this game even more. Wish you could see full uncut drawn by the same artist. And if you've been playing Alicesoft & MangaGamer games before, do not hesitate anymore. This is a game for you.

Gal*Gun Series is a Gun Shooting game created by INTI CREATES, famous for the MegaMan Zero series. INTI CREATES is a company founded by CAPCOM graduates. And INTI CREATES is well known as Azure Striker Gunvolt which MegaMan's Spiritual Successor.

When the first series, Gal*Gun, was released at Tokyo Game Show 2010, the reaction was shocking. Nonetheless, the series has been widely supported by many users. It is easy to see that the user rating for this series of games is very positive even now.

Unlike the previous game(Gal*Gun), there are only two heroines in this game(Gal*Gun: Double Peace) that can be selected at first. Instead, when the conditions are met, the choices are gradually increased, and the endings can also be seen with extra characters.

In previous the game, there was a root crossing that was only in add mode. In this game, however, the system is basically applied, so it is possible to move the stage freely. The action sequence has changed more dramatically than before. If you look at it, it is filled with amazing action in a different sense. For example, you have to take out the heroine that is caught in the window frame.

This game has an interesting story of course, as described in the introduction to the game. It is a pleasant and lovely story. So you may have a very exciting experience through this game. Doki Doki mode is also great. When a player meets certain conditions, the heroines take a double-piece gesture like the game title.

This game is successful, unlike the reaction of the main media in the early days. This is because the game satisfies users' wishes. If you enjoy playing this game, you may change your preconceptions. So if you have a chance, I recommend you to enjoy this game. There is a difference between what you have experienced and what you have not.

Full Review - Lucy Got Problems

This is a nice Yuri game that is the first Steam game by Flat Chest Dev. With the recent changes in Steam's policies, these genres of games and visual novels have become more popular.

This game has a fairly easy to understand and pleasant story. It is full of funny humor that can make the player smile. Even if you are not familiar with these genres, it's easy to get into. The illustrations are attractive and the gameplay is a combination of point & click and some choice selection. This function avoids monotonous reading and encourages us to immerse and experience the game itself. The story may seem relatively short but it's made so that we can expect a follow up to this wonderful game.

In terms of replayability, you need to play the game again to collect additional illustrations & endings. But it is not boring because you will find other things you missed in your first run. Plus, the artwork and BGM in this game are great. Not only CGs but the SDs are also lovingly represented. You can really feel the ethusiasm of the developer through the game's design.

With their first steam game, Flat Chest Dev has shown the potential to become a developer who can grow and create great games. I already have high expectations for their next work. If you are hesitant to buy this game, give it a try. It's worth it!
